Mitt Romney Pumps His Own Gas At La Jolla Station
Vibe ^ | November 21, 2012

Posted on 11/21/2012 6:33:46 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

After losing to President Obama in the election earlier this month, his former political opponent Mitt Romney has kept in the shadows of defeat. The former Republican nominee was spotted at La Jolla gas station Monday pumping gas, looking rather disheveled. TMZ reports that he and his wife were on a movie date, catching the Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 and grabbed some pizza afterwards. The flick of Romney at the tank was snapped up by Reddit user mkb95, who wrote "Mitt Romney at my local gas station. He looks tired and washed up." He even got to interact with the former presidential candidate. "I talked to him for a good three minutes while he was filling his tank," the photographer added. "I guess he's moving to one of his houses in the town I live in, La Jolla." Things aren't entirely bad for Romney. He gets to wallow in his losses as the owner of a $12 million mansion in California.

The media is not curious about the failing clown in the Oval Office but it does want to follow Mitt Romney to the petrol station.

Somehow, it is immoral to use money you actually earned to run for political office. But it is just fine to use a famous name your father bestowed upon you (like Bob Casey, Jr.) or celebrity status which the media bestowed on you (like BO) for an entitlement to political office.

Personally I would feel a whole lot better having a President who pumped his own gas.

And this is supposed to make bammy look good somehow? An attempt to make Romney look like a broken man? I’d rather have the guy that Romney had to hand his money to for the gas as president than the kenyan!!!

Maybe he’ll do his “Checkers” speech and run again.

These idiots are living in fantasy land and think think this election was the plot line to the film “Trading Places.” ‘All of a sudden, Romney is the poor disheveled SOB who got what he deserved and has to pump his own gas now.’ Of course they fit in that he is still living in a $12 mill. mansion. What a bunch of jerks.

Something that Obama will never have to do if he ever learned to do in the first place.

I don’t think they will stop this. I don’t think they can. obama supporters have to perpetuate the meme that Republicans are evil, mean, and - eek - rich...otherwise, people might stop believing. By the time the next election rolls around, the base will already be convinced.

Dear MSM never mind that the economy is going into a pupal state for four more years, that war broke out within days of Hussein’s stolen election and average working people’s health care is up $2500 for 2013.

I get the impression Romney has always pumped his own gas. The media have him this whole air of someone with a retinue of hangers-on running his errands.
